Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I know it's bad to post multiple hands in one OP but I'm leaving the country tomorrow for a month and would really appreciate some quick feedback here.

I ran well @ 200nl, running at 13.1bb/100 over 38k hands, playing 18/13/2.3.

I moved up to 400nl with a 5 BI shot taking BR (in other words, once I lost 2k I'd move down). This shot lasted me 3.3k hands, where I ran slightly looser @ 20/14/2.2. I was running OK for the first 1.5k hands or so, but I hit a huge downswing, all of today basically, where I got crushed.

A lot of the following hands are just coolers that I could do nothing about, but I included them to give perspective on my state of mind while playing, as the really bad ones were looming in my mind undoubtedly. There are also some bad tilt hands that I'm too embarrassed to include.

Villains' stats included following the hand #s:

I know but I'm leaving for a month and need feedback quick. Sorry.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I just looked at aces and kings, really u have to learn to throw those away at times. you raise pre-flop so villian knows your strong, so when he starts betting into you like that you know he has you beat. almost always a set or two pair.

pocket 6 vs jack 7 was just unlucky lol.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

if youre leaving for a month why would you be so desperate for feedback..? seems like you have more than adequate time to analyse them on your own.
also, coolers and bad beats doesnt add anything, its quite sifficient to say "i was tilted from taking beats all night" or something like that

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

jack jack vs 65, he is really milking you here. you really need to raise on flop or turn to find out where your at.

a10 k5 you shold know he has a monster when he puts a small bet on the flop, and calls your raise then a big bet into you on the turn? I suppose you gambled here and could of won though.

I'd rather not have this whole thread turn into me defending why I'm desperate for feedback, but I'll be out of the country for the first time in my life, and will likely be in a completely different state of mind, possibly w/o poker altogether, and I'd like to fix what I can b4 I leave.

On Hand 1, would you play the flop different, and would you fold to the turn donk?

Hand 2, do you fold to the flop 3bet?

Thanks for your feedback so far.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I have no problem with the amount of hands in this post, however i didnt even look at them because the advice remains the same. If yoiu really have those stats at 1/2 ove a decent (but not huge) you should be a winner at 2/4. I think its important especially when your taking shots that you set a stop loss or quit when ur a certain number of buy ins ahead. Usually if you have swings either way it affects you subconciously in the form of tilt. Seems like you were ur own worst enemy here.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

hand 1: bad beat.
hand 2: bad beat.
hand 3: bad beat.
hand 4: only hand you could consider folding at some point.
hand 5: what can you do.
hand 6: cooler.
hand 7: cooler.
hand 8: bad beat.


etc etc. got tired of reading throguh them.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

Hand 1 im assuming CO was fish! If he was then its an uber badbeat and u played it right

read most of them. hands 4 and 5 are meh. post the rest in BBV, not strat worthy for sure.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

This post mostly belongs in BBV.

River: ($270) 4 3 9 4 A (2 Players)
BB bets $270.00, Hero calls $270.00

This call is awful.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I was the villain in one of these hands...WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

i read the first few....
your just running bad, rebuild and take another shot

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I gave up a few hands in. Some of these hands you played terribly, some of them just belong in bbv. The AT flush draw hand is a pretty obvious turn fold btw. That's as far as I got. Go through the hands, dumb any that are obvious coolers, and repost the legit strategy questions.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

What advice are you really looking for? Just practice good bankroll management and study the game. That pretty much solves everything.

Hand 9 sucks a lot by the way, and that is the only one I looked at.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

Ive played with you a lot on ftp, at 1/2 and i saw you quite a bit today at 2/4. I was main vil in Hand 7 where you were oversetted - obv nothing you could've done, although your hand was quite obvious. I'm also quite happy I missclicked and didnt raise pf lol.

But in saying that i've seen you play quite a bit, I've noticed that you're a solid player - the majority of these hands are just sick - i think you'll be fine.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

I looked at about 9 hands before I realized you were really just trying to say "look at how bad I run." Best that you re-post this stuff in BBV. You might get what you're looking for there (e.g., pity, pat on the back, etc.).

There were a couple hands that could be analyzed, but you have to realize they get lost in the big string of BBV hands, and therefore nobody is really that excited in giving in-depth analysis. For example, I think you can get away from hand 4 and 9, but if you are serious about feedback then just post the real feedback hands without the mix of BBV hands. Try posting one hand at a time (or two or three at most). You'll get better feedback here.

Or, if you want someone to analyze more than a dozen hands at a time, you should seriously consider hiring a coach.

Thanks for all of the responses so far guys. I'm sure I'll get back from my trip in a month, look back at this thread, and say "wow, i must of been tripping." Just needed some advice on the non-cooler hands, mainly the overpairs that I guess I'm overplaying somewhat.

Post hands individually and you will get much better advice. When you make one of the threads half the replies are going to be of: stop complaining, you suck, etc.

Obv., and as I've stated only reason I did that was cuz I'm leaving for a while and won't be playing seriously like I am now, so I wanted to get whatever feedback I could before I left. Guess I was a little frazzled by my bad run combined with a lil anxiety about my trip.

Running bad sucks so much. I just broke out of a break even stretch of 100K hands of mid stakes poker. Just realize that you are in it for the long term. You don't need to move up to 400 NL especially if you cannot handle the variance right now. If you have to, just keep building up so much profit at 200 NL then by the time you get to 400 NL you can drop a few buyins and not have it impact your bankroll significantly.

I planned on making another 10 BI's at 200nl and then moving back up again with a 5 BI BR. I still have over 50 BI's @ 200nl, should I stick with this plan, or grind out more BI's at 200nl before taking a 400nl shot, and/or move up with more than a 5 BI shot BR?

Don't completely switch from one stake to another. Say you usually play 6 tables of 200 NL, well next session try just one or two tables of 400 NL and keep the others as 200 NL. Get a feel for how the new game plays compared with your current game.

I'd also say it's a good idea to have a specific number in mind where you absolutely have to rebuild and can no longer play 400 NL unless you get back up to that number. In your case I would make that number either 8k or 10k. So as long as you have over 10k in your account you are feel to play as much 400 NL as you like. If you drop below that number you absoluetly have to rebuild. Depending on your tolerance for risk your number could be higher or lower than the ones I mentioned.

Re: Took a shot @ 400nl, got crushed, plz help
 

exactly. bunch of bad beats. 2/4 will do that to you. you get lots of bad beats there. A lot more than 1/2.

hand1: I think I would just call the flop unless he donks a lot. when he bets pot on turn even when you raised flop, you are behind and can fold imo

hand2: fine

hand3: fine

hand4: fine although he seems passive so I could fold turn but I never do. maybe result oriented bc I can see the results

hand5: well, you are behind obv. count your odds

hand6: fine

hand7: I would raise preflop. and ye, I get it AI on the flop too

hand8: fine

hand9: fine

hand10: I dont know.

hand11: fine I think, I might b/f river tho.

hand12: fine

hand13: c-bet, as played fine imo

hand14: fine

hand15: raise river

wtf. Yes if hes playing a donk or loose bluffer id shove it in most of the time, but against any solid player you will almost be up against a set or two pair in this situation. you pre flop raised and showed so much strength, yet this guy is betting into you that should ring alarm bells. Its definately not a clear cut decision but u can get away from it imo.
